It replaces apps/server.pem that used a sha1 signature with a copy of test/certs/servercert.pem that is uses sha256. This caused the dtlstest to start failing. It's testing connection sbetween a dtls client and server. In particular it was checking that if we drop a record that the handshake recovers and still completes successfully. The test iterates a number of times. The first time through it drops the first record. The second time it drops the second one, and so on. In order to do this it has a hard-coded value for the expected number of records it should see in a handshake. That's ok because we completely control both sides of the handshake and know what records we expect to see. Small changes in message size would be tolerated because that is unlikely to have an impact on the number of records. Larger changes in message size however could increase or decrease the number of records and hence cause the test to fail. This particular test uses a mem bio which doesn't have all the CTRLs that the dgram BIO has. When we are using a dgram BIO we query that BIO to determine the MTU size. The smaller the MTU the more fragmented handshakes become. Since the mem BIO doesn't report an MTU we use a rather small default value and get quite a lot of records in our handshake. This has the tendency to increase the likelihood of the number of records changing in the test if the message size changes. It so happens that the new server certificate is smaller than the old one. AFAICT this is probably because the DNs for the Subject and Issuer are significantly shorter than previously. The result is that the number of records used to transmit the Certificate message is one less than it was before. This actually has a knock on impact for subsequent messages and how we fragment them resulting in one less ServerKeyExchange record too (the actual size of the ServerKeyExchange message hasn't changed, but where in that message it gets fragmented has). In total the number of records used in the handshake has decreased by 2 with the new server.pem file. Reviewed-by: Paul Dale <paul.dale@oracle.com> GH: #10784 |

DESCRIPTION
-----------
The OpenSSL Project is a collaborative effort to develop a robust,
commercial-grade, fully featured, and Open Source toolkit implementing the
Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocols (including SSLv3) as well as a
full-strength general purpose cryptographic library.
OpenSSL is descended from the SSLeay library developed by Eric A. Young
and Tim J. Hudson.
The OpenSSL toolkit is licensed under the Apache License 2.0, which means
that you are free to get and use it for commercial and non-commercial
purposes as long as you fulfill its conditions.
OVERVIEW
--------
The OpenSSL toolkit includes:
libssl (with platform specific naming):
Provides the client and server-side implementations for SSLv3 and TLS.
libcrypto (with platform specific naming):
Provides general cryptographic and X.509 support needed by SSL/TLS but
not logically part of it.
openssl:
A command line tool that can be used for:
Creation of key parameters
Creation of X.509 certificates, CSRs and CRLs
Calculation of message digests
Encryption and decryption
SSL/TLS client and server tests
Handling of S/MIME signed or encrypted mail
And more...
INSTALLATION
------------
See the appropriate file:
INSTALL Linux, Unix, Windows, OpenVMS, ...
NOTES.* INSTALL addendums for different platforms
SUPPORT
-------
See the OpenSSL website www.openssl.org for details on how to obtain
commercial technical support. Free community support is available through the
openssl-users email list (see
https://www.openssl.org/community/mailinglists.html for further details).
If you have any problems with OpenSSL then please take the following steps
first:
- Download the latest version from the repository
to see if the problem has already been addressed
- Configure with no-asm
- Remove compiler optimization flags
If you wish to report a bug then please include the following information
and create an issue on GitHub:
- OpenSSL version: output of 'openssl version -a'
- Configuration data: output of 'perl configdata.pm --dump'
- OS Name, Version, Hardware platform
- Compiler Details (name, version)
- Application Details (name, version)
- Problem Description (steps that will reproduce the problem, if known)
- Stack Traceback (if the application dumps core)
Just because something doesn't work the way you expect does not mean it
is necessarily a bug in OpenSSL. Use the openssl-users email list for this type
of query.

LEGALITIES
----------
A number of nations restrict the use or export of cryptography. If you
are potentially subject to such restrictions you should seek competent
professional legal advice before attempting to develop or distribute
cryptographic code.
